Russia: threatens the Baltics.
 
The Baltics: strengthen their defence.
 
Russia: ‘Why are you threatening us?’
 
In Kremlin messaging, cause and effect are conveniently reversed.

Reminds me of the time that Donald Trump blamed Latvians, Lithuanians, and Estonians for starting World War I. (He confused the Balkans with the Baltics.)

No she didn‘t.

(Listen to the Interview. She said there we’re differentes between Germany, Poland and the Baltics about a new Minsk Format.)

Putin in 2022: "Rights of the Russian-speaking minorities in Ukraine are being violated but we are not going to invade Ukraine"
Putin yesterday: "Rights of the Russian-speaking minorities in the Baltics are being violated but we are not going to invade the Baltics."

Russian exports through the Baltics has been de-facto paralyzed.

The Baltics have to being saying, "Well...F*ck."

🧵 For their own security, the Baltics must form a mutual defense alliance with Ukraine. The Baltics are the chief beneficiary of such an alliance, not Ukraine.

🤡 "The Baltics are a geopolitical misunderstanding. Who wants to burn in a nuclear Armageddon for the Baltics? Well, who?"

Russian propagandists have begun to talk about "Vilnius, Riga, Tallinn in three days".

Russians are really flooding the zone about the Baltics lately

Will Donald Trump uphold NATO defense commitments when Russia invades the Baltics next? No, Trump will do nothing. Trump favors Putin and Russia.

>be Germans
>spend 800 years warring in the Baltics
>get your shit together and resolve to be better
>it causes you to go to war in the Baltics
56% of Germans believe that Russia will attack eastern NATO countries.
In Dec 24 a (small) majority still believed they wouldn’t.

That Danish intelligence report is broadly in line with what the Baltics are saying. The threat assessment is unchanged here.

Leipzig shows how all of Europe is threatened by Russia - and all of Europe could actually learn more from the Baltics.

right, there’s this weird idea that the big mean us forced nato membership on the baltics rather than the baltics wanting protection from the russians (which, y’know, can’t imagine why…)
There's always this unstated assumption that NATO is expanding east at the barrel of a gun and there's never any effort made to justify that. Like where exactly is the popular dissent in eastern European publics against NATO membership?

A ceasefire in Ukraine would allow Russia to reposition its forces and increase the threat to the Baltics, FT reports. Moscow aims to build a 1.5-million-strong army, doubling its troop presence near Finland and the Baltics.

Couldn’t think of a better time for China to attack Taiwan and for Russia to move on the Baltics. Trump is all but inviting them to do it.
Trump praises North Korea's dictator as "unthreatening and respectful” and says he has ordered the Pentagon to scale back joint military exercises with South Korea because they are "hostile" to Pyongyang. www.nytimes.com/2026/08/16/u...
Trump Orders Pentagon to Curtail Military Exercises With Ally South Korea

Instead of imposing the sanctions he promised he defunded support for the Baltics.

Pathetic but not surprising.
It’s begins to leak with some new details that there will be NO sanctions on Russia

European leaders had a "heated conversation" with Trump, they do not expect him to impose new sanctions against Russia, — BILD

This alliance will likely be supported by the Baltics and Nordics.

Moscow would like the Baltics to stop behaving as though Moscow might do the things Moscow keeps threatening to do.
